"What? whatdoyoumeanyouhavemysonsphoneiwasjustwithhimandnowimworriedihavenoideawherehecouldpossiblybe!" This is all I hear from the other end of the line, and I stand there flabbergasted. Mary immediately starts laughing at the look on my face, and Brad scowls, walking away to buy a churro.

I bite my nails, "Um, don't worry.. I'm sure he's fine.." I say nervously.

"You're sure he's fine?! What kind of a psychopath are you? You probably kidnapped him. That's it. I'm calling the police." 

"No! Don't do that. Definitely do not do that. I have no idea where your son is lady!" I yelp.

 Mary's cackles grow louder, and I look down to see her on the ground, clutching her stomach. Brad has returned, armed with two large churros. He considers them for a moment, before deciding to simultaneously shove both of them in his mouth.

"Oh sure, that's believable. Not like any kidnapper would say, oh no, of course I didn't kidnap your kid." The woman on the phone says sarcastically, and I instinctively make a face at the phone.

"Um excuse me. The sass is not going to find your son." I snap. "Where was he when you last saw him?" I ask.

"Um, I think around the Car's rollercoaster." She says slowly.

Of course. Where we started. "Okay, meet me there and we will look for him then." I say, a cheerful tone back in my voice. The line goes dead and I turn around, to find Brad gagging into a trashcan while Mary happily munches on the remaining churro.

"Come on team! We have a mission to finish!" I say loudly, placing my hands on my hips like the super hero that I so clearly am.
